    We had a bit of an extended maintenance period due to an issue with the server.  Sorry for any inconvenience while we were down.

    I've modified word_custom for stories_no_premium_access changing it to: You must purchase <a href="https://www.gayauthors.org/subscriptions/" title="Premium Content in Store">Premium Content</a> to access premium stories.

    I found that the default viewStory template has been modified so that an area that was <section> is now <div> BUT the bottom remained </section>. So per Myr I changed the bottom to </div> and I'm posting here. @GA Staff Do you know why you changed it from <section> to <div>? Are we doing the right thing just fixing the bottom to </div> or should we go back to section at top/bottom?

    So, it could be a few things: 1. We just updated to a new version of our upstream forum software. While there isn't a report of this being an issue, they could've messed up notifications. 2. It could be a system/database issue. To address that possibility I just ran database maintenance and rebooted the server. I didn't see anything that pointed to corruption, but better safe than sorry. My hope is that maintenance will magically cure whatever it was that caused this, but most likely we'll never know why this happened unless we find out it's a bug with the

    If you "accidentally" called a guy Daddy during fun time in the last year, do you have to get him a father's day card? Asking for a friend.

    No number truly gives you a one hundred percent accurate representation for how many people actually read the content of the chapter. We'll be rolling out a more extensive set of story analytics to authors later this year. Additionally, your suggestion would invalidate the statistics for those that post collections of shorts and poetry where a later chapter might legitimately be read more than an earlier chapter. At this time I see no reason to make any changes.

    @BHopper2 has answered this question correctly. Viewing a chapter or viewing the story page counts as a view.

    I'm a bit unsure of what went wrong. I did a quick unpublish/republish on 11 and 12 and both magically showed up in the list. There isn't enough data to support a conclusion at this time.

    As I said, it's not broke now that I can see. That chapter is from April 2015 which was the old system. It has 14k hits in our test system which is a one-time copy of GA we made back in early 2017. That was well above the rest of the chapters. Clearly that chapter has something special about it because it's received another 12k hits since then. But I can't even say for certain that equals a bug. What if it contains a specific series of words that makes it show up in Google searches? Then I'd just be hunting down a non-existent bug that was the result of weird search formulas.

    I'm not saying it wasn't broke at some point in the past, but it doesn't appear to be broke right now. I just tested with a story and a chapter and it worked flawlessly. It updates about every 5 minutes so if you go to a chapter of your story, hit refresh 20 times, and then wait 5-10 minutes you should see the increase show up. Regarding later chapters having higher numbers than previous chapters, that's usually people finding the site from the Internet and opening links not realizing it's not the first chapter. Sometimes site activity is higher and if your story post coincides
